Can't run it locally because it requires a fucking OAuth2 token for some reason?

Then to register an application to use the fucking thing you have to publish it to your deviantart page? Where your watchers will see it? Who designed this fucking mess?

You don't, actually. Instead of clicking "Save", click "Cancel". A client ID and secret will still be created and can be used; you just can't change anything else about your "app".
